About Me

I love books. And I love cupcakes. I spend alot of time reading blogs about both. Then I thought to myself, wouldn't it be fun to have it all in one? So here's the plan. Here on my little blog, you're going to find book reviews (mostly YA, because I'm absolutely addicted to them) and once in while I'll show you what I'm cooking up in my little vintage aprons, recipes and all. It's gonna be fun---visit often!! :)

To contact me regarding this blog or if you are a publisher/author with a book you'd like reviewed, send an email to:
storiesandsweetiesblog@gmail.com

See Review Policy
I am currently accepting YA books for review, but I am not accepting ebooks.

What's New: November YA Releases & Giveaway!

November is here! If you caught my post last night, you know what I'll be doing all this month! Hopefully there will lots of lovely rainy days to encourage me to stay inside and write! How was everyone's Halloween? Fun and spooky, I hope!! :D As you can see below, the publisher world is slowing down for the season, but there are still some great books coming out!So if you're new to Stories & Sweeties, here's a little run-down of
this feature: at the start of each month, I do a little thing called the
"What's New List & Giveaway" where you'll find a full list of the
new releases in YA for the month, and entry to the giveaway. At the end
of each month, one lucky winner will get to choose any new release as
their prize!

First things first! The winner of September giveaway was:Julia Rain!! Congratulations!!
